LA County Fair

On the morning of Sept.23, people of all ages came to the LA County fair in Pomona, California to have fun, enjoy the rides and eat a variety of food. The last weekend of the fair still attracted numerous amounts of people, excited to try the food and ride the attractions.

“Overall it was fun and cool; the rides were really fun. I was able to go on a couple and the ones

I went one were fun,” Miranda said. “What I enjoyed the most was the food, I had a giant corndog and a bacon burger.”

Anna Aceves, 12, had gone to the fair earlier in the month when it started. Aceves loved being able to get up close to all the baby goats and pigs in the petting zoo.

“I think it might be the best county fair I’ve been to; the OC Fair is like a little baby compared to the LA Fair,” Aceves stated. “The best part was all the animals because it’s so fun to see pigs race and being able to pet and feed the animals was even better!”

Before the LA County Fair ever existed, it was formerly known as a beet field in Pomona. It

was opened for 5 successful days between October 17 through October 21,1922. Throughout

the years, the fair has really grown with more food vendors like King Taco, Subway and adding Jurassic Park.
